Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the Oil & Gas Market, Forecast to 2028: Integrating AI with Legacy Systems Remains a Challenge


Dublin, Jan. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "AI in Oil and Gas Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028F" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The oil and gas industry is poised for a digital revolution with the surge in Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration, as detailed in a new research publication. The market, currently valued at USD 3.37 billion in 2022, is expected to experience unprecedented growth with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.62% through 2028. This surge is attributed to the remarkable efficiency gains, predictive maintenance capabilities, and cost reductions provided by advanced AI technologies.



Cost Efficiency and Enhanced Production Optimization Fueling AI Adoption

AI stands at the forefront of operations within the Oil and Gas sector, offering transformative solutions for cost reduction, equipment maintenance, and production optimization. Companies are leveraging machine learning and analytics to forecast and mitigate potential system failures, ensuring consistent operation while minimizing expenses. AI-driven explorations are yielding more accurate and reliable insights into reservoir behaviors, significantly impacting cost savings by reducing the margin of error in operations.

Data Analytics Shaping Informed Decision-making

The integral role of AI-driven data analytics in refining operational processes and decision-making is further catalyzing the market growth. AI's prowess in processing and analyzing complex datasets is facilitating well-informed strategic decisions and heightening operational efficiency. Such analytical strength is magnifying its necessity in the demanding realms of reservoir exploration, market forecasting, and enhancing asset management through predictive maintenance.

Integrating AI with Legacy Systems Remains a Challenge

Despite its potential, the integration of AI with legacy systems stands as a barrier to full adoption within the oil and gas industry. The discrepancy between existing infrastructures and the novel AI technologies requires innovative middleware solutions and collaborative industry efforts to bridge the gap. Companies face technical and cultural hurdles, necessitating strategic planning and investment to ensure effective AI integration.

The Workforce Gap and High Implementation Costs Present Hurdles

Another obstacle arises from the industry’s high AI implementation costs, which can be particularly stifling for small to mid-sized companies. Additionally, the scarcity of a skilled workforce well-versed in both AI technologies and the oil and gas domain is impeding the rapid adoption of AI innovations. Addressing these financial and expertise-related challenges is essential to sustain the industry's growth and leverage AI's full potential.

Automation and Robotics Mark the Forefront of AI Trends

The oil and gas market is witnessing remarkable advancements in automation and robotics, with AI empowering systems to perform tasks more efficiently and safely. Autonomous drilling, AI-guided inspections, and maintenance by robotics are reducing the need for human intervention, especially in hostile environments, subsequently increasing operational safety and cost-effectiveness.

Predictive Maintenance Through AI a Game Changer For Operational Reliability

AI's application in predictive maintenance is proving to be a critical driver for the industry's modernization. By predicting maintenance needs before equipment failure occurs, companies can prevent costly downtime, secure operational efficiency, and extend asset lifespans.

Regional Insights Indicate North America as the Leading Market

The North American region, particularly the United States and Canada, is anticipated to dominate the AI in oil and gas market during the forecast period. This is facilitated by strong economic conditions, advanced technology adoption, and significant investments in research and development.

Segmental Insights Spotlight the Upstream Sector

  • The upstream sector is expected to maintain the largest share, with AI tools significantly optimizing oil exploration processes and data analysis.
  • AI's predictive maintenance capabilities are being employed to align with the industry's increasing focus on reducing carbon footprints.
